They better not meme Jordan for crying this time. He gave one of the most heartfelt speeches I've ever heard.

[Master-mfvt]

MJ has a whole speech but barely looked at it…that’s how u know this was from the heart

[Deetrim]

My dad called me a year ago to tell me of Kobe’s passing, and I remember thinking “wow I can’t imagine how Vanessa feels” 10 months later my dad unexpectedly passed. And now I know exactly how she felt. Love hard, tell people you love them. Life is so unpredictable, and we can never hit rewind

[thekilla]

“everyone always wanted to talk about the comparisons between he and I, I just wanted to talk about Kobe”.. that shit hit hard man

He looks just as devastated from the loss as much as he did when he lost his father

[Hsuperman]

MJ lost his father to tragedy too and now his "little brother." Heartbroken.

[mr.schwiftybeats]

it’s amazing that MJ was still able to speak so clearly while tearing up. a real man performs no matter what the emotional pressure is. honorable.

[georgebaxter]

“ it’s rare to find friends like that” that hit hard

[ProHamza]

Man it’s been 6 months and I’m still not over this😔

[emmanuelkazonis]

Episode 5 last dance ... Kobe said I wouldn’t have 5 rings without Michael Jordan ... there wouldn’t be a Kobe Bryant without Michael Jordan, these two guys loved each other ... RIP Kobe ...

[miketurns]

Even in retirement Jordan came through in the clutch…amazing words…R.I.P Mamba.

[bigmac]

Michael Jordan nailed that speech, I didn’t know Jordan was such a great speaker and story teller. He sum up a 20 plus relationship in 12 mins unbelievable.

[kahnsealable]

"When Kobe Bryant died. A piece of me died." Jordan NEVER allows himself to be in the public eye. or show emotion. Kobe really meant the world to him and it shows.

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

Now we've lost Chadwick Boseman, this year has been nothing but pain and people's suffering.

[luigikilla]

I’m here 4 years later and this shit still makes me tear up

[tlightning]

Disgusting and shameful to put an ad right smack in the middle of this.

[vincentforsberg]

You can see how broken he is. Kobe wasn't like a brother. He was a brother.

[JEZZE]

I have never seen michael jordan so emotional. Tremendous moment right here.

[kngaagaard]

I am about to run my usual 5 miles before work...I never was like that until you died, I sobered up and realized what I needed to do to better myself like you did every single day. Coming up on 4 years sober now, and I miss you Kobe, thank you for making me a better man in all aspects of my life.
